An item which is already in our assortment since 2016, but had only one batch for the polish market so far, back then still in the old design (a second batch was made for the UK though).
Often I have seen the critical questions why this item is F3 - so in order to reply this, the item is F3 as the total powderweight is over 500g, but yes, by the powderweight per shot etc it would be possible to make the same item as a 1kg F2 compound fireworks.
As for the current batch, here I started the attempt with one factory we are cooperating with to let one of the 3 technicians of our former own factory to lead the production. The whole attempt failed badly, as many chemicals were different now, but noone adjusted the formulas properly; furthermore the factory had a poor management, and there was a lot of humidity in the first half of the year.
At this cake as a result of this, too big titanium was used, so there are less sparks and the lines of the brocade effects don´t look very defined, and especially in the video it looks more like one big cloud of sparks (although in reality, the golden lines can be seen better).
Furthermore, due to the high humidity in china, the strobes don´t ignite well enough (it´s still ok, but I still hope it will be better in europe once completely dry), and the salutes at the end are too weak / not louder than the normal bursts.
As for the positives, the mines, the tails and the hangtime of the of the gold are better than before. So I guess everyone needs to decide by himself what his priorities are.
